Utopia Bedding Gusseted Pillow (2-Pack) Premium Quality Bed Pillows - Side Back Sleepers - Grey Gusset - Queen - 18 x 26 Inches

I was very skeptical about ordering these lol I'm a side sleeper and have major pillow issues. For some reason, no matter the pillow, I wear them out within about 3 months typically. The ONLY pillows I have found so far are from Holiday Inn Express but they recently stopped selling them (still bummed). I read a LOT of reviews before ordering these. I need SOME firmness to mine so the pillow doesn't squish down to the bed when I lay my head on it and that is really difficult to gauge when ordering online. I bit the bullet and ordered these. These were vacuum packed and SO thin when they arrive that I doubted anything would puff them back up. Also, the outer shell material felt very cheap to me. I put them in the dryer one at a time and they came out HUGE. I slept like a baby the first night! Soft like a cloud but did not sink all the way to the bed with the weight of my head. Its now been 4 weeks and the last 2 days I woke up with a migraine, the first signs my pillows are too worn out for me. I stuck them in the dryer one at a time with 2 tennis balls and voila! Nice and puffy again. No migraine today. I HOPE that I can keep them alive by doing this, I would be ecstatic if I could get 6 months out of them.

As far as pillows go these would be 4 or 5 stars. I have had 2 of these for almost 3.5 months. I am a strapping 6' 0" tall 300 pound manly man who sleeps with my pillows wrapped up like they're in a choke hold. I also drive my elbows into them throughout the night as well. They have held up surprisingly well. I am beyond impressed.

I wouldn't know never received all of them. The others seem ok, when I called amazon to tell what happened, the call was escalated to a supervisor, that was the worst experience I have had. I was shamed for ordering 92 times on prime membership account, he was very arrogant, in all the most horrible customer service supervisor ever! So no I advised not to buy, unless you want to be shamed for ordering this product!!

DONT BUY THEESE PILLOWS THEY CAME VACUUM SEALED AN INCH THICK OPEN THE PACKAGE THEY PUFFUP SAME WHEN YOU PUT YOUR HEAD ON THEM ONE ONTOP OF THE OTHER THEY FLATTING DOWN TO ABOUT 2 INCHES NO HEAD SUPPORT AT ALL. ****BAD PILLOW****

My husband & I are both side sleepers who have disk & nerve issues with our necks and backs. I hadn't bought us new pillows for way too long and the ones we had were old, flat & lumpy. So when I saw these on a Lightning Deal, I figured that the price definitely made these worth a shot (although they're not exactly expensive normally). I got us a queen size set in blue & prepped them in the dryer as suggested. They didn't have any weird smell like some other customers had mentioned, but I put a few drops of lavender essential oil on them anyway because I love the smell & it's so soothing. The 1st night we slept on the new pillows was amazing. I have compressed disks & pinched nerves in my neck, and I usually wake up with a lot of pain there, but not since I bought these. They are exactly the right balance of firm & soft for a side sleeper who likes to read her Kindle in bed. Since I got these about a week ago, both my husband and I have woken up feeling more rested & in less pain than we have in months. Even our cat loves them! When she's in our bedroom with us, she'll lay down in the middle of one of our pillows if it's empty. If we're both laying down she'll curl up over our heads on the place where the two pillows meet. These pillows are definitely worth 5 stars and 5 meows!

These pillows are down alternative. They are a softer pillow. If you like a firm pillow these would not be the best choice.The packaging was well done. Air tight. (No chance for critters from warehouse storage) The instructions for fluffing the pillows was convenient. A few shakes and pulls and they were good to go!

the pillows I got look nothing like the picture, they’re basic white pillows and they are much less fluffy and they dont have the grey/blue thing on the side, looks like a different product was sent

I have had these pillows a few weeks now, and as a side sleeper I love them. The pillows 'fluff up" and are firm enough that I only really have to use one of them. I have been using 2 pillows for years in order to support my head comfortably. You will however need to use queen or king sized pillow cases, these are big pillows and regular pillow cases will ride up on them over the course of a night.As in all things, there is only rarely a one size fits all solution. These pillows may not be right for you, but after unpacking them and letting them fluff up to their full size (they were compressed down to fit in the shipping box) I have been extremely happy with these pillows. They are firm so if you want a soft pillow they will not work for you and they have a lot of loft. However if you, like me, are a side sleeper they could well be the solution to your sleeping problems.

Update Jan 3 2021: The product has changed. I purchased this item a second time (because I loved it so much) to replace my worn-out pillows after almost 2 years (originally purchased in Feb 2019), and I am very disappointed to find it is a different product. I thought maybe it was just aesthetics, but after trying the new pillow for three nights, I can say it is NOT the same. The new pillow not only looks different (see new pic attached showing the difference in the gusseting), but the material is different (old pillow makes no noise when you squeeze it, new pillow makes a 'swishing' noise), the new pillow does not puff up as much as the old style did and do not respond the same when you rest on them, and on the first night using it I woke up several times in the night with HORRIBLE lower back pain (finally I used my old pillow again just to get to sleep, so glad I did't throw it out); I thought this pain might be unrelated/a coincidence so I tried two more nights but had the same issue. Thereby, I have updated my rating to reflect the new product; it is NOT the same as the one I loved/originally reviewed, and I do NOT recommend this new pillow. DO NOT BUY.Update (Mar 2019): After a month of using the pillow, I took a photo to compare it to an unused one to show the change. Naturally it got flatter (left pillow is the used one), but it’s still very comfortable. I would still highly recommend this pillow! :)Original Post (Feb 2019): I will update my review in a few months to advise how these hold up, but I’ve been using this pillow for two weeks now and I LOVE it!!!! I’m a side sleeper, memory foam pillows give me neck pain, and all pillows I’ve tried so far get really flat very fast, but this pillow so far is holding its fluff, is so cozy to rest into, and I haven’t had any pain or discomfort at all as of yet. I’m holding the second pillow as a back up in case they don’t hold their shape for a long time, but even if I have to replace them once a year it’s money well spent to have such a comfortable cozy sleep :)

I'm picky as all get out about 2 things- underwear and pillows. anything you spend as much time with as you do those, you get to be picky about. These gave me no cause to be picky though because they're just the right degree of soft and they don't crush down nearly as quickly as other soft pillows I've had in the past. they're nice and big so I can roll one side up if I want extra volume and just over all they're good pillows. they came vacuum sealed but I tossed them in the dryer on air for a couple minutes and they fluffed right up. when they start to get a little lop sided from my wonky sleeping I toss them back in and voilà!

La NASA n'a en rien avoir avec la technologie du produit. J'avais besoin d'oreillers et j'avais pas envie de vendre un reins pour un oreiller breveté dans l'espace à multi fonction voir auto nettoyant....J'en voulais une, y en avait 2! Et elles remplissent leurs devoir à merveille. Confortable et économique, pour la durabilité j'aime mieux en recommander au besoin et de rester avec un produit que j'aime. :-)

After reading the numerous decent reviews I decided to buy the pillows. I was looking for fluffy pillows that would provide good neck support.These pillows are neither. They are limp and thin out of the vacuum sealed package, and after airing and fluffing them they end up being no more than two inches thick. Once you rest your head on the pillows, your head sinks to the lev of the mattress and you are essentially sleaping without a pillow. I cannot believe these reviews about how extraordinary these pillows are. I would refund these if I hadn't opened them (but how else could you try them??).The only silver lining is that these pillows come in a pair, so it is good value. But this is a perfect example of getting exactly what you pay for. Low quality, temporary products that need to be replaced.

Highly recommend these pillows if you are searching for a high quality, down alternative. They provide the right amount of support (I am a side sleeper) for my neck, and coolness that some down alternatives miss. The pillows fluffed up to full size within about 30 minutes. Can't beat it for the price!!!!
